-=- Discounted for a limited time! -=-

Critters are on the march! And only you can stop them...

Critter Defense is a cute, innovative tower defense game that breaks free from the grid and brings players a whole new level of tactical (and tactile) nuance. It's part action game, part puzzle game, and part strategy game. Featuring:

Deadly Enemies - Critters come in a variety of menacing breeds.

Deadlier Towers - Poison! Blast! Mud! Flame! Cannon! And many more.

Social Networking - See how your scores match up against your friends and the world!

In the tradition of games like Fieldrunners, TapDefense, geoDefense, PixelJunk Monsters, Desktop Tower Defense, and Plants vs Zombies, Critter Defense brings strategic depth that challenges your reflexes and your brain. Check it out!

What's new

Now you can play iPod music in the background, also improved in-game music and vibration effects. And tweaks to the discussion forums. Sweet!

Critter Defense is an excellent tower defense strategy game. The game itself contains 3 worlds, each with 3 levels and a boss level. In order to complete a level, you must destroy 21 rounds of enemies before they break the defense of your tower. There are 8 different types of defensive units that you can build, and 3 of these are given to you. The other five must be unlocked by completing certain levels of the game.

Game play is somewhat slow at times, but it can be sped up. Clicking on the critter rounds icon on the top right will allow the next enemy to come out, even if the current enemy is not fully defeated yet. Defense units can be upgraded. The more hits a unit gets, the stronger it becomes. When a level is complete, you will be given a score, and a ribbon based on how high that score is. Levels can be replayed to achieve a higher score or to get the better medals.

The biggest issue that this game has is that it simply goes by too quickly. Despite how fun it is, it can be finished after only about an hour of gameplay. In future updates, I would love to see additional worlds. Boss battles are a great addition to this game; they actually take quite a lot of hits, as well. This is an excellent game; it just needs a little more content.Then again, for 99 cents, a game with an hour of gameplay that you actually want to put the full hour into is quite a bargain! If you like tower defense strategy games, I recommend giving Critter Defense a go. You won't be disappointed.
